Residual Forces

This LTE exposes the sheer idiocy of the lefty gun control idiots and big government nanny staters.

GRATUITOUS VIOLENCE
Take stand on handguns

Syndicated columnists Bob Herbert and E.J. Dionne have it right (Opinion Exchange, April 22), that the Virginia Tech massacre points up the necessity for tighter laws controlling the sale of handguns.

Mass murders are rare occasions. The case of the teenager who was gratuitously shot and killed on a bus in St. Paul Saturday night is more typical of the atrocities that take place on a daily basis in any of our large cities.

I am waiting for at least one congressman to step up to the plate and say enough is enough — we must have stricter gun control legislation. Even if a tough handgun bill were sent to President Bush and vetoed, it would still send a powerful message, one that none of the 2008 presidential candidates could duck.

Not to act means that we live in a far more dysfunctional society than we realize.

[sigh]

The 17 year old kid  who was arrested for the murder should not have had a gun in the first place according to current laws. So what good would more laws do since the criminal class in our country don’t give a damn about any of the current laws on the books, let alone the ones intended to stop them from doing what they do?

It is time for the adults to deal with the animals. Please take a big step back and watch, you just may learn something.

Just because you take a bone away from a dog, doesn’t mean that he doesn’t still want a bone. He will do every thing he can to find one and chew on it. So …… well. Not yet?

OK, here. Pot is illegal, but is one of the most readily available drugs out there. It is a billion dollar industry and is not only smuggled into the US, but is also grown here. So having laws is not working there.

The 2nd Amendment is the most important Amendment Americans have. It allows the citizens to make sure the Government doesn’t turn into a totalitarian state that controls every aspect of our lives, from what we do, to what we say. …..

Wait a second. Maybe it is high time Americans fight back against the growing Government before they not only take away our freedoms, but the guns that helped us shrug off the former despotic regime that had us under their heel last time.

I’m not advocating violence, just that my fellow Americans soon realize that if we continue down this road to the dysfunctional nanny state, we’ll be living under a theocracy much worse than the one we revolted against 230 some years ago. What happened to laize faire?

This man thinks taking away all guns is going to make him safe, but he doesn’t realize it is the very guns that he wants to take away, that are going to make sure he has the right to be the idiot he is and that a dysfunctional government will not stop him from being a moron.

He says to take a stand against guns, I say have the courage to take a stand against dysfunctional Government. It is far more courageous to fight for our freedoms and rights, than it is to fight to have the government take them away.
